What a great Idea!
We need to start a campaign to award Honorary American Citizenship to Charles Darwin for continuing in the Spirit of Enlightenment of our Founding Fathers.
He would stand in good company with the previous Honorary Citizens, Marquis de La Fayette, William Penn, Winston Churchill, Raoul Wallenberg, and Mother Theresa.

He was just coming of age when Jefferson died but surely had they been contemporaries Jefferson would have had a bust of Darwin in his "gallery of worthies" just as he had Voltaire, Lafayette or Franklin.
